• Gap year student, travelling, working as an intern, and volunteering, before studying Law at Cambridge University, Churchill College 2010.

Having completed my formal education, GCSEs and A Level, I am now on a gap year before going to Cambridge Uiversity, Churchill college, to study Law. During my Gap year, I intend to gain as much experience as possible, building on past internships with Independent Audit and Henderson Global Investors. I am undertaking a 2 month iternship with the Social Recruitment company BraveNewTalent, followed by a six-week internship with Dr. Justice Dhananjaya Y. Chandrachud, a sitting judge of the Bombay High Court and an eminent jurist in India. This internship in Mumbai will develop on my learnings from Prime Minister's Global Fellowdship 2009,  where I spent 6 weeks in India learning about the political, educational, social, legal, and corporate multinational environments, with a 2 week placement in Shell Technology India. I will also be doing a number of volunteer placements with NGOs based in southern India, Argentina, Chile, Ghana, and Gambia until June 2010. As of June 2010, I will be travelling around Eastern Europe doing a string of volunteer placements from the Netherlands down to Slovenia. I hope to spend August in Turkey for the World Youth Congress 2010. Spetember 2010 will be spent on a hiking tour of Wales and Scotland. October 2010 - start university and recommence my Jewellery business (and possibly my art business also.)
